hey i've watched both versions and they're both good~ i don't get why people can't stop comparing the two :(
i feel like these all sprung out from the ABS-CBN - GMA network rivalry in the philippines..

now about your question.. you've watched hana kimi japan and hana kimi taiwan has a "few different spices" in it, i recommend watching it as well.. there is no better version~ as previously mentioned, they're both good

yeah...I agree they're both really good...and I also agree about the rivalry thing...it's just funny that ABS-CBN put "The original" in their title...and GMA put "The newest and the Best"

...so its like...Hana-Kimi Taiwan "The Original"
...and Hana-Kimi Japan "The Newest and The Best"
...haha...channel rivalry is really funny!\

First, Ella in Taiwan Version was horrible, and wu's face kept going like everytime. Compare that to the coolness of oguri and cuteness of maki!!!!

Obviously Japanese version is much better la

no comments about wu chun.
but ella was really bad. and what irks me is that her fans actually blamed her poor talents on the director, saying that ella's overacting is all because of the stupid directing.
i'm like.....

hana kimi japan 4 u is the best ... of course they would be better... they already know how to make better improvisations because there was already the taiwan version... of course they'd do their best because of hana kimi taiwan version.... if it wasn't 4 the taiwan version, jap version MIGHT suck w/o hana kimi taiwan... no offense to others.. it's my own "TRUE" opinion...but i guess i must watch it first .... oki.. bie...
